Like-new Macbook, I've had it less than a week. Realized that I still really need a PC for my work, and then that I couldn't return the Macbook for a refund because it's BTO (I upgraded to an 80GB hard drive). It does not moo, whine, or shut down randomly, and there is no discoloration on the palmrests (at least not yet). It does run rather warm--doing word processing/surfing the web will push it into the low to mid 60s Celsius. It comes with Apple Care, so if any problems do arise, Apple is obligated to fix them. Refurbs with this configuration are going for $1348 at Apple's online store. I am asking $1250, plus $30 shipping. Paypal only, please.

Here is my miniscule ebay feedback:

Why not just run Windows on the MacBook?

I got a good deal on a thinkpad z61t (education discount). I like the Macbook, but I prefer the Thinkpad, and I can only keep one.

Oh man.... I really want to take this offer, but don't have the cash.

If you want local, try Craigslist.org for wherever you live. You should be able to sell it easily.

I've discovered a few dead pixels in a line near the bottom of the screen, so I'm knocking $75 off the price. $1175, plus $30 shipping

I would recommend you get that screen replaced if there are that many bad pixels. It will sell much easier.

Thanks. I think I'm going to give that a try.

I'll take it for $1130 shipped to Tampa, FL. How do I contact you?

My MSN screen name is ankit@xaratech.com and I can use AIM as well if necessary. I'd rather do this transaction in realtime over IM rather than via email if possible.
